Gen 4 Recalls

Dropped my bike off at the dealers today for the oil cooler replacement, front wheel sensor, switch gear and the right hand shark gill. They told me bmw won’t replace the shark gill under warranty

What's wrong with your front wheel sensor?

I hired a new S1000RR Sport in Almeria last week and I can confirm that neutral was impossible to find with the engine running, either hot or cold.
I hope mine will be different.
I tried adjusting the clutch lever as well.

Seems that finally the oil coolers arrive.
On a side note my friend with his Panigale V4s told me he is getting 4 new recalls 2 of them urgent one coolers and other fuel system. And it’s a 2 year old bike eh?

said I’ve caught it with my leg and it’s not a manufacturing fault. They’re 26€ to replace so not going to argue. I’m going to look for a carbon replacement. Any ideas?

Carsons in Euros.... personally though if your spending 20k on a bike you don't expect body panels to break just because of the heat from the engine. I've mentioned in the past that EVERY gen 4 i have seen bar that grey one at the NEC has had a broken shark fin....

Whose your deal Carson?

my bikes out in Spain so using a Spanish dealer. Pretty sure I’d get it replaced at East Kilbride if I mention it to them but for the sake of €26 I’ll let it go this time. I’ll keep the broken one and speak to EK in February when it’s back.

Where about in Spain? I might need a dealer near Jerez.

Elche, up near Alicante, so quite a bit from Jerez. I’d image there will be one done there though

Yes, same as cars, sometimes cars as old as 5-6 years old can get recalls if they see a pattern of consistent issues across the range.

Bikes still in the dealers waiting for the oil cooler that was ordered 6 weeks ago.

Apparently they used the oil cooler that was ordered on another bike! Been told that it’ll be ready tomorrow.

Sorry mate... was just so sick of waiting

My new oil cooler and new clutch will be fitted on Thursday. I’ll let you know if the new, redesigned clutch fixes the neutral issues.

New clutch is like heaven.
